Washington just took the reasonable step of not allowing the National Guard of other states to operate here without our agreement. It’s not the Guard personnel we are concerned about, it’s other governors in the Trump cult. katu.com/news/local/g...

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law

This expresses it well. Willful defiance of a court order is, by definition, not an official act. Pass it on.

"It is nowhere near the end, we do not yet even know how it will end, and there will be many more disturbing developments before it does, but Thursday was a day for seeing why standing up matters — and can make a difference."

Never forget.

This once again confirms the prisoners are in El Salvador prisons at our behest and under our control.

If the government can pay a foreign state to imprison you and, in so doing, remove you from the protection of US law, the Constitution is worthless.

The dream is dead

Trump to SCOTUS:

BREAKING: The House just adopted a budget resolution that sets the stage for deep cuts to Medicaid. People with disabilities, seniors in nursing homes, and children in schools will suffer the brunt of these misguided cuts.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

SAVE Act just passed House. It is modern-day poll tax that would disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans, end online, mail + voter registration drives & require voters to register in person at election offices, forcing some rural voters to drive 8 hours to register. Total disaster in every way

BREAKING: Federal judge in New York issues a temporary restraining order (and certifies a limited class) barring the Trump administration from removing anyone in the Southern District of New York from the U.S. under Trump's Alien Enemies Act proclamation or transferring them out of S.D.N.Y.

You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it? He posted "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" just hours before pausing the tariffs. It's time for everyone to ask House Republicans why they aren't fighting for an investigation into this.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

Some personal news: I’ve paused the car factory I started building yesterday.

Fantastic

Yeah, but stupid always reacts too late.

This is a video of PBS travel guy Rick Steves at the Edmonds WA Hands Off event, giving a speech which I think is one of the BEST explanations I've seen for the average person of what is going on now and it is 🔥🔥🔥. You are going to want to watch this. youtu.be/86hnPrWozUo?...

I never thought I would say that the WSJ's front page better reflects where we are right now than the NYT's but here we are

Today’s photos from the Methow Valley (WA State). Amazing turnout! #handsoff @50501movement.bsky.social

In the Methow Valley there are three towns that encompass most of the valley population. Our side of WA State is mostly red. This is the town of Twisp where 295 people protested today. For us, that’s a big number. This is the 5th week of protesting. @50501movement.bsky.social

Too perfect.

🚨MUST-WATCH: “Something very fishy is happening.” @mrglobaltoo.bsky.social deep dives on Strategic Storage Partners, the shady self-storage real estate company Trump’s Secretary of Energy just awarded $1.4 BILLION to manage our strategic petroleum reserve🤔 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DIAXDvj...

Cory Booker breaks the record Crawford wins Weil and Valimont slash the margin Elon Musk is poison. Good day for democracy.

Susan Crawford: But I gotta tell ya — as a little girl growing up in Chippewa Falls, I never could’ve imagined that I’d be taking on the richest man in the world … for justice in Wisconsin. And we won!”

BREAKING: I'm placing a hold on President Trump's nominee for U.S. Attorney in DC. For the past few weeks, Ed Martin has been a one-man wrecking ball. Threatening political opponents, firing public servants, and using his office to chill free speech. His nomination must be blocked.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥
